The history of Borodin's Second Symphony is closely linked with that of his opera, Prince Igor. The first ideas for the Symphony occurred to him early in 1869, hut in April of that year Stassov suggested the opera subject to him, and for a time he devoted all his energies to Igor. Then he decided (temporarily) that the subject was unsuitable. 'Don't worry about it', lie wrote to Stassov. ' The material won't be wasted. It will all go into my Second Symphony '. Accordingly the first movement of the Symphony was written in 1871. During the period 1874-76 he was working at both opera and Symphony, and the last two movements of the Symphony were based on themes originally intended for an epilogue to Prince Igor.

'Understanding Your Car's Complaints '-I
JOHN ADAMS
As the spring approaches, thoughts turn from the house to the open air, and in many cases in the first place to the garage and the car which many a listener has laid up all the winter and will now be taking on the road again.
This evening Mr. Adams, who gave a talk this month in ' Topics in the Air ' on ' Taking out the Car ', is to give the first of two talks continuing his story, and describing with the assistance of gramophone records the noises a car makes and what they mean. Mr. Adams has had the co-operation of the A.A. and the R.A.C., and will give his second talk next Wednesday, April 8.

The scenarios and decor of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, and the descriptive sub-titles, were suggested by Nicholas Roerich , painter, archaeologist and ethnographer. Roerich had been in charge of important excavations in the Novgorod Province, which had brought to light numerous treasures of neolithic art, and no one was better fittted to devise an artistic re-creation of the spring fertility rites of the pagan Slavs.
The work is divided into two parts : a ceremony of earth-worship and the sacrifice of a chosen maiden. After a slow introduction based on a Lithuanian folk-melody, come the ' auguries of spring ' (' stamping ' chords) ; the young beauties of the tribe dance, and there is a mock ' marriage by capture ' (a swift scherzo). Then come ' spring rounds ' (opened and closed by a lovely clarinet melody) and ' the gamea of rival communities '. Presently a Wise Elder appears ; he kisses the earth in adoration, and the first part ends with ' the winning of the earth by dancing '. After a gloomy introduction, the maidens begin the sacrifice, moving mysteriously in circles. There is a wild dance glorifying the chosen victim ; the shades of the tribal ancestors are evoked and worshipped ; and the work ends with a wild sacrificial dance.
